Turner said he will be spending a lot of time in future on party finances, fundraising ad accountability across the country Monday's meeting followed a two-hour meeting Sunday on organization matters between Turner and six party executives from the province, said Marcel Ix'ssard, president of the Quebec wing.He said discussions dealt with recruiting new members.Party executive Jacques Fortin said Turner’s leadership was not discussed at the meeting «Pat- v.v.J -Ï- 7 ' ;' /j, , r ¦ i r-.-.m V ‘Tough’ Clark ‘moves’ Shultz A record haul RKCORlWhRRY BEATON QPF drug squad detective Y von Sullivan examines part of the record drug seizure taken from the basement of a Dunant Street house searched Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.See story page 3.By Glenn Somerville TORONTO (CP) — External Affairs Minister Joe Clark claims Canada has become a more “pragmatic” country since a Conservative government came to power a month ago, less “inward-looking” and more ea ger for U.S.and other foreign investment.Clark told visiting U.S.State Secre tary George Shultz during a two-hour meeting Monday that previous gover nments spent too much time “venting ideological concerns” in a confrontational way with the United States.It is time for “a new tone” that empha sizes more practical ways of resol ving cross-border differences, offi cials quoted Clark as saying.Shultz was described as “a little moved” by Clark’s comments.He said Clark should feel free to “pick up the phone and call any time there is a moment of friction.” Shultz added he will feel free to do the same with Clark.Clark and Shultz are scheduled to meet again today over breakfast and at a morning session to continue discussion of bilateral and international issues before Shultz returns to Washington in the early afternoon.At a dinner Monday evening, Clark said Prime Minister Mulroney’s visit Sept.25 to Washington to meet President Reagan “was the first step in what I take to be a joint determination to reinvigorate our relationship.’ PROMISES CHANGES The Reagan administration can an ticipate “important changes to the mandate of the Foreign Investment Review Agency (and) .to certain parts of the national energy policy,’’ Clark said, because the Conservative government “recognizes the very key place which foreign investment has and must continue to play in Canada's economic development ” Both federal policies were introdu ced during the 16-year government of former Liberal prime minister Pierre Trudeau and were protested by the United States as nationalistic and discriminatory toward American business interests in Canada.Officials reported Clark told Shultz that Canadians “can't afford to be too inward-looking” and that the election majority voters awarded the Tories Sept 4 is interpreted by the government as “a clear mandate to enhance the Canada-U.S.relationship.” He complimented Clark for his businesslike approach to their first meeting “He’s tough." Shultz remarked, adding they had gone through “a couple of hours or so of very tough exchange.” Aside from a brief meeting at the United Nations last month, the Toronto session is the first time Clark and Shultz have held talks.But U.S.and Canadian officials said no points of disagreement came up for discussion at Monday’s ice-breaking session Controversial topics as U.S.policy in Latin America, mutual interests in the Middle East and East-West arms control all were left over for today’s meetings.Shultz was “in a listening mode" at these sessions just three weeks before the U.S presidential elections, according to U.S officials, and he wasn't specifically endorsing the newly elected Conservative government over past Liberal regimes in Canada.Nonetheless, Shultz acknowledged Canada’s importance to the United States as its leading international trade partner and said Americans have "a gigantic stake in having a constructive, thoughtful and wellworking relationship" with their northern neighbor The Reagan administration considers good relations with Canada “a top priority,” he added.Shultz and Clark are to hold a joint news conference early in the afternoon before the U.S.state secretary flies home.Ed ends Tory cozy with beef against tax hike By Dan Leger ST.JOHN’S, Nfld (CP) —National NDP leader Ed Broadbent signalled a cooling in the honeymoon atmosphere for the new federal government Monday when he described a tax increase approved by the Tory government as a blow to the goal of increased employment.Broadbent, speaking to a fired-up Duarte, rebels end five-year silence with meet By Joseph B.Frazier LA PALMA, El Salvador (AP) — Government and leftist rebel leaders, in their first talks of El Salvador's five-year civil war, agreed to meet again next month and set up a commission to search for peace “in the least possible time.” No date or location was fixed for the November meeting, and one rebel leader said “there can be no ceasefire” for the time being in the conflict that has claimed 59,000 lives.After a 4‘/2-hour conference Monday in the church of this mountain village, President Jose Napoleon Duarte and the rebels cautioned that they have a long way to go to end a war that has left the country close to economic ruin.But both sides said progress has been made.The joint commission will be made up of four members from each side, and include a mediator from the Roman Catholic Church.The commission is to study the issues raised at Monday’s historic session.The agreements were in a joint communique read to a crowd of about 20,000 people in front of the church on La Palma’s main square.A roar of approval went up from the throng as Msgr Arturo Rivera y Damas, archbishop of San Salvador, finished reading the message.TALKS VERY POSITIVE’ Later, Guillermo Ungo, one of the rebel negotiators, told the crowd: “We cannot say what we talked about inside, we can only talk about our opinion of the meeting.And our opinion is that it was very positive.” Ungo is president of the Democratic Revolutionary Front, the political coalition allied to the guerrilla movement.“We think it is the first stage of a Quebec, Ottawa: We won’t give more to Quebec ’84 QUEBEC (CP) — Both the Quebec and federal governments refused Monday to pour more public funds into Quebec ’84, the summer festival which ran up a deficit of $14.6 million.But Quebec Cultural Affairs Minister Clément Richard said a report by the corporation which managed the festivities, as well as an external audit report, must be made public as soon as possible.“We don’t know what really happened,” Richard told reporters.“The corporation has to give us some explanation about what happened during the summer.” And Michel Côté, federal minister of consumer and corporate affairs, issued a statement saying Ottawa will wait for the corporation’s report before deciding whether to pump more money into it.The festival, held to celebrate the 450th anniversary of French explorer Jacques Cartier’s landing in Quebec, was plagued by poor attendance and a resulting deficit which increased dramatically after the celebration ended at the end of August.Côté said in his statment he was as- tounded when he learned the size of the deficit earlier Monday from representatives of the corporation.He said the last time he had been told about it, on Aug.8, the deficit was “clearly” not growing.Richard noted that the deficit was $896,000 on Aug.8, $2.7 million Sept.7, $3.2 million the morning of Sept.19, $3.9 million that evening, and $4 1 million the next day.The Quebec government had already contributed $3.5 million in July to cover a projected deficit.The federal government matched that amount, while the Quebec Urban Community kicked in $1 million for a total of $8 million.Last week, Quebec '84 president Richard Drouin said there is an additional deficit of $6 4 million, and called ¦for a public inquiry into his corporation’s management and finances.Corporation treasurer Paul-André Michaud has promised to release detailed financial records later this week When the three levels of government granted the $8 million in July, Michaud said Friday, the festival had only been open for seven days.process of talks, but there are many steps to go,” he said.“There are many different points of view between them and us over the reality of this country.” “We couldn't have exaggerated ex pectations about just one meeting producing through the art of magic the salvation of the Salvadoran conflict,” Ungo told reporters at the airport in Panama City, after retur ning to Panama.He ruled out an im mediate ceasefire.Reuben Zamora, the front's vice-president, said there was “complete unanimity” among the five rebel groups of Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front for the peace talks.Speaking to the crowd in La Palma after the rebel leaders, Duarte echoed the rebel comments that some progress has been made.“It was not possible to have a solution in just one meeting,” Duarte said.“But we came out of the church with a communique with hopes of peace.“We will continue going deeper into the different points of view so we can resolve them.We cannot offer miracles, neither can we offer peace from morning to night." convention of the Newfoundland Federation of Labor, said the sales tax increase imposed Oct 1 will take more than $1 billion from the Canadian economy and put as many as 50,(XM) people out of work.And that, he said, proves the new government and Prime Minister Mulroney have already decided to abandon their promise of change made during the election campaign.Calling Mulroney “Liberalism with an Irish face,” Broadbent said Canadians are being shortchanged for their support of the Tories on Sept 4 The tax, he said, "was implemented by the Liberals and abdicated by the Tories.” Such policies, which put deficit-reduction ahead of job-creation, represent “the same general approach as we got from (former Finance Minister) Marc Lalonde, and that the people of Canada thought they were voting against in September ’’ Broadbent, who did not visit the province during the federal campaign, came into the convention fresh from a landmark victory for his party in Newfoundland politics.Last week, the NDP elected its first-ever member to the provincial legislature, making it the eighth province to elect a New Democrat.SEES TREND And the party expects to benefit from the efforts of a newly-formed coalition of church, labor and social groups that aims to puncture the stature of Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford and pressure his government into changing policies the movement sees as anti-labor and antiwomen.Broadbent said such activity shows a trend toward political polarization in Canada that will support only two parties — one clearly supporting left-wing goals and one supporting the right. fc—The RECORD—Tuesday, October 16.HIH1 La Presse publisher slams Montreal for Anglophone flight, high taxes By Allan Swift MONTREAL (CP) — Roger Landry, publisher of the French language daily La Presse, said Monday that Montreal is falling asleep "like a Sleeping Beauty," and attacked all three levels of government for allowing the city to lose its place as Canada's leading metropolis.In a luncheon speech applauded by some 750 members of the Montreal Board of Trade and the Canadian Club — mainly English speaking business groups Landry said "The burden of a number of political fixations, long endured, is slowly lifting.“The impression remains that we are only beginning to emerge from a long nightmare, of which the memories we retain are not the stuff of sweet dreams.” The bad dreams he listed included the exodus of head offices, a "massive flight of Anglophones because they were not made to feel at home in Quebec,” and "abusive personal taxes.” Journalists crowding around Landry afterwards assumed he was attacking the Parti Québécois government but Landry, a step away from Quebec’s Communications Minister Jean-Francois Bertrand, said he was referring to federal-provincial squabbles in which Montreal was the scapegoat.DRAPEAU ABSENT He also called for a change in the city's administration, after praising Mayor Jean Drapeau who was absent, although his name figured on the head table list."The time has come," he said in an interview after his speech, noting this November marks the 30th anniversary of Drapeau’s first election as mayor.“I’m not telling him to get out, but if he continues he’s going to have to change style.” The lavish dinner was held to honor the news media, including La Presse which celebrates its 100th anniversary on Saturday.Head table guests included CBC president Pierre Juneau and CTV president Murray Cher-cover.La Presse still proudly carries on its masthead the slogan, The Biggest French Daily in America, even though the crime-and-sports tabloid Le Journal de Montreal has had a larger circulation ever since a strike at la Presse in 1977.La Presse, which publishes seven days a week, has a circulation of 200,000 to 220,000 on weekdays.It is owned by Gesca Ltee., a subsidiary of Power Corp.controlled by Paul Des-marais.Port chair

concerned about the fu ture of bilingualism in the province have been given more time to prepare for a series of public hearings that will lay the groundwork for a new language policy.Representatives of the New Brunswick Advisory Committee on Official Languages, a seven-member citizen’s committee set up by the province to organize a public debate on language, announced Monday there will be a three month delay before the start of public hearings The hearings, which were to begin this week in Fredericton, are now scheduled to start Jan 14.They are designed to give people an opportunity to discuss a 1982 report that recommends sweeping changes in the civil service, schools, courts and the private sector to create a truly bilingual structure for the province.The key recommendation in the report, Towards Equality of Official Languages in New Brunswick, is the call for duality in the civil service.This system would allow the majority of civil servants to work in their own language in government departments split into French and English components.Members of the advisory committee said there has been much interest in the upcoming hearings.They asked for the postponement after it became clear many people did not understand the long, complex report.A short summary has been prepared and information workshops will be held at various centres throughout the province beginning Nov.5.New Brunswick is the only officially bilingual province in Canada.The Official Languages Act has been in force since 1969 and the Progressive Conservative government of Premier Richard Hatfield feels it’s time to update the legislation.The approximately 255,000 francophones in New Brunswick make up one-third of the province’s population LBJ had accurate figures Westmoreland suit is told NEW YORK (AP) - Former president Lyndon Johnson was not deceived about Communist troop estimates as a CBS documentary claimed because his information came from several sources, Johnson’s national security adviser testified.Walt Rostow, the first witness to testify in Gen William Westmoreland’s $120-million libel suit against CBS, was scheduled to take the stand today for cross-examination by the network’s lawyers.Westmoreland is suing over a CBS documentary that said Johnson, misled by the general’s progress reports in 1967, was caught unprepared Weather Mostly sunny today and tomorrow with temperatures rising up to 18-20.Foggy tonight and tomorrow night with a low of 2.by the size of the Communist offensive in January 1968, a turning point in the war Westmoreland'claims the Jan.23, 1982, broadcast, The Uncounted Enemy : A Vietnam Deception, falsely accused him of a conspiracy to underestimate Communist troop strength to fool Johnson into believing the war was being won.Rostow testified Monday that Johnson also had information from the Central Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency and the late Ellsworth Bunker, U S ambassador to South Vietnam Rostow said Johnson was fully informed of a dispute between military analysts, who estimated there were 285,000 Communist troops, and the CIA, which said there were an additional 120,000 local ‘‘self-defence’’ forces.The documentary said Westmoreland told Johnson during a top-level meeting in April 1967 that American troops were killing or capturing Communist guerrillas more quickly than they could be replaced.‘‘That is not my memory of the meeting,” Rostow said.Mohawk plan meets objection MONTREAL (CP) — Premier Rene Levesque has told leaders of the Mohawk reserve in nearby Caughnawaga that their decision to extend the reserve’s boundary to the middle of the St.Lawrence River is an infringement on the rights of Quebecers.Levesque said in a letter Monday to the band council that all Quebecers ha ve a right to hunt and fish on the river which, ‘ ‘unless proven otherwise, is part of the public domain.” The premier said he objects to the council sending its “police force to patrol the St.Lawrence River to harass ordinary Quebec citizens who are legally exercising their rights on the river.” Environmentalists fined SOREL, Que.(CP) — Ten environmental activists were each fined $250 and placed on six months probation Monday after pleading guilty to charges of mischief for trying to plug waste outlets last July at a chemical plant on the St.Lawrence River.The Greenpeace members — including two Americans and one Briton — were originally accused of criminal mischief and conspiracy to commit mischief, but the charges were withdrawn Monday and the 10 agreed to plead guilty to the reduced charge.Sessions Judge Paul Peloquin also ordered the return of most of the equipment seized from the protesters when they were arrested at the Tioxide Canada Inc.plant in Tracy — 65 kilometres downstream from Montreal — as they tried to block the company’s underwater drains with a makeshift wooden plug.Thatcher trial gets under way SASKATOON (CP) — Colin Thatcher winked and smiled at reporters as he walked into a courtroom today for his first-degree murder trial.Thatcher is charged in the death of his former wife, JoAnn Wilson.Although most of the approximately 112 spectator seats, 28 of which were set aside for media, were taken by prospective jurors, people began lining up outside the Court of Queen’s Bench courtroom as early as 6 a m.After proceedings got under way at 10 a.m.a group of about 60 people remained outside the courtroom, waiting for a chance at any seats that might come open.Women promised fair deal HALIFAX (CP) — Premier John Buchanan told women Monday his Conservative government will give female entrepreneurs a fair deal in starting their own businesses.As the candidates entered the third week of the campaign for the Nov.6 election, Buchanan addressed the Tory women’s caucus, a group of Conservative women who meet regularly to discuss political issues.The legislature elected its only female legislature member last spring, but the house adjourned before she could be sworn in.Maxine Cochran won the seat in a byelection last spring, succeeding her late husband, former tourism minister Bruce Cochran.Reagan denies quotes WASHINGTON (AP) — President Reagan says in a magazine interview published Monday that he never used the term ‘‘evil empire” to describe the Soviet Union.But the record shows otherwise.Reagan also says he hasn’t described the Soviets as liars and cheats.But at his first news conference after taking office he said the Soviets ‘ ‘ reserve unto themselves the right to commit any crime, to lie, to cheat.” The interview in which the president says “those weren’t my words” is published in the Oct.22 issue of U S.News and World Report."Mr.President,” the magazine’s editors asked, “why would you expect the Soviets to negotiate with you on arms control after the way you’ve denounced them as liars and cheats who run an evil empire?” Responded Reagan: “Let me go back and recall the press conference when those words were spoken.They were in answer to a direct question, and they weren’t my words.” —___ Kecora George MacLaren, Publisher 569-9511 Charles Bury, Editor 569-6345 Lloyd G Scheib, Advertising

in Florida’s electric chair.Charles Foster and Frank Smith would have been put to death at 7 a m.Tuesday in the first double execution in the United States in 19 years.Foster, 37, convicted of the 1975 murder of an elderly Panama City, Fla., man, contended that psychiatric records were not presented which might have led to leniency.Smith, 28, convicted of the 1978 slaying of a convenience store clerk, contended that he was sentenced to death because he is black.Torch stealer sentenced LOS ANGELES (AP) — A woman who admitted stealing an Olympic torch from a handicapped 13-year-old boy has been sentenced to 90 days in jail and two years' probation.Joanna Firo, 27, pleaded guilty to a single count of petty theft before sentencing by Muncipal Court Commissioner Harold Crowder.The torch was stolen from Jerry Ortega after he entrusted it to a woman so he could help another handicapped child down some steps during an Aug.29 ceremony at city hall.Ortega, who lost part of his foot in an automobile accident nine years ago, was so upset by the theft he couldn't take part in a photo session with other torch runners and Mayor Tom Bradley.Antidote found for killer spider ATLANTA (AP) — The first antidote to the poisonous venom of the brown recluse spider, a sometimes deadly insect that lives in the U.S.Southeast and bites about 5,000 people a year, has been developed by two Tennessee researchers.The Atlanta Constitution reported Monday that Wife of Soviet spy dies NEW YORK (AP) — Priscilla Hiss, whose husband Alger was accused of spying for the Soviets in the 1940’s, has died.She was 81.Mrs.Hiss, who died Sunday in hospital, defended her husband’s innocence through two perjury trials after he was accused of spying by Whittaker Chambers, an admitted former courier for a Soviet spy ring.Hiss, a former State Department official, was convicted of perjuring himself in his second trial, after the first ended in a hung jury, and spent 44 months in federal prison.Mrs.Hiss testified during both trials that she did not type out copies of secret documents for the Soviets and that she did not meet with Chambers, both key prosecution contentions.Burn victim dies MILWAUKEE (AP) — A woman whose husband is accused of dousing her with gasoline and setting her afire after watching the television movie The Burning Bed, died of her burns Monday, officials said.Sharon Brandt, 37, suffered burns over 95 per cent of her body.The burning followed the NBC television movie Oct.8 that portrayed an abused wife killing her husband by setting his bed on fire.Joseph Brandt, 39, the victim’s husband, was charged last week with causing injury.Police said Brandt told them he had watched the movie.Transsexuals barred from pageant ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.(AP) — Scandal-weary officials of the Miss America pageant said Monday they have rewritten the contract used to oust Vanessa Williams by adding more specific language against “acts of moral turpitude,” although it doesn’t mention posing nude for photographs.The new contract also bars transsexuals from entering the pageant.Two paragraphs were rewritten during an annual review of the four-page contract, which is sent to an estimated 80,000 women entering local pageants each year, said Albert Marks, executive director of the contest."We reviewed the contest agreement with steps toward avoiding any future embarrassment, always acknowledging that it is impossible to stipulate everything that might occur,” he said.Crocodile peddlers fined NEWARK (Reuter) —Two brothers were fined heavily in federal court Monday for peddling the hides of more than 2,500 South American crocodiles to make handbags, belts and shoes.David Klapisch, 61, and his brother, Jacques, 63, and their firm, Meg Import, were fined a total of $76,000 for violations of the Endangerad Species Act.The brothers also received six-year suspended prison terms.The hide of one of the crocodiles, from the rare Black Caiman species that inhabits the Amazon River, is valued at about $2,500 wholesale.U.S.Attorney Hunt Dumont said the crocodile hides were shipped on 13 occasions between 1977 and 1979 to Switzerland, Hong Kong and Italy.Up up and away WAYNE, N.J.(AP) — Mike Santoianni and Robin Watts had more than their share of ups and downs when their honeymoon balloon ride turned into an adventure-filled 25-kilometre journey across a state line.Santoianni and Watts were married Sunday in Tuxedo Park, N.Y., and by the time they came down from all the excitement, they were in this Passaic County community.Winds carried the couple and pilot Fred Williams away from the large empty fields they had hoped to land in.“We tried for a parking lot, and we tried for a street,” Santoianni said.“We considered landing in the lake, but Robin doesn’t swim very well.” So they fired the gas burners and went up, drifting over Packanack Lake until a downdraft dropped the balloon into the top of a tree.“When we hit the top, we felt this had to be it,” Santoianni said.“Fred told us to get down in the bottom of the basket, and we just held on.” The uninjured couple took it all in stride."We’ve been together for 11 years, and nothing was going to louse it up at this point,” Santoianni said.Political dialogue set to resume PEKING (Reuter) — Chinese and Soviet negotiators square off Wednesday for another round of sparring over ways to improve their countries’ long-soured relations, but there are few signs that the bout will end soon.Deputy Foreign Minister Leonid Uyichov, who arrived today from Moscow, is set to resume a dialogue with China’s Vice-Foreign Minister Qian Qichen begun in October 1982.After four long rounds of talks since then, both sides can point to closer ties in non-political areas — notably trade, culture, science and sport.But in the political arena, their estrangement over basic issues appears firm.Peking has said the Soviet Union must remove its troops from Afghanistan, reduce its forces along China's borders and stop supporting Vietnam’s presence in Kampuchea.Moscow has found all three demands unacceptable.Fire roars across Boardwalk ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.(AP) — Fire roared across a heavily travelled section of the famed Boardwalk early Monday, destroying four stores and damaging three others, and authorities searched for one or two people they believe started the blaze.The fire, which broke out about 12:45 a.m.under the Boardwalk about a block from three casinos, was "definitely suspicious,” said Chief Fire Inspector Joseph Gaukler.Damage was put at $750,000.The flames, fanned by strong winds, spread to nearby shops before it was brought under control at 4 a.m.Firefighters were also hampered in their efforts because of rusty hydrants.Pope to allow Latin-only mass VATICAN CITY (AP) — The Vatican announced Monday that Pope John Paul will allow Limited use of the Latin-only Tridentine mass banned worldwide two decades ago.However, the Pope imposed restrictions that prohibit regular parish use of the mass in which the priest does not face the congregation and the laity has no part in reading the Bible, the anoun-cement said.The Tridentine mass, established by Pope Pius V in 1570, was banned by the Second Vatican Council of 1962-65 in an effort to modernize the Roman Catholic liturgy and allow more participation and understanding of the mass by the congregation.Ailind dissident sent to jail WARSAW (AP) — A Warsaw court on Monday ordered ailing dissident Wojciech Ziembinski to spend three months in jail for organizing an illegal demonstration, the official news agency PAP reported.The court upheld an Aug.30 ruling by a misdemeanor court that found Ziembinski, 59, guilty of organizing an illegal gathering on Aug.15 and delivering a speech insulting Poland’s Communist authorities, PAP said.Ziembinski said he expected to be sent to prison soon despite what he described as a “very bad” heart condition.Talks promote East-West dialogue BONN (Reuter)—West Germany and Romania have begun two-days of top-level talks in Bonn by urging Washington and Moscow to maintain East-West dialogue.Romanian President Nicolae Ceausescu, the only one of three Eastern European Communist leaders to accept an invitation to visit West Germany this year, held almost two hours of talks Monday night with Chancellor Helmut Kohl.The Bonn government described the talks, the first of two rounds between the two leaders, as intensive and said the leaders concentrated on East-West ties, disarmament and arms control.China to preserve capitalism PEKING (AP) — Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping indicated in an article published Monday that China might extend the 50-year pledge to preserve capitalism in post-colonial Hong Kong.Deng, 80-year-old chairman of the Communist party Central Advisory Commission, also reiterated his conviction that China’s concept of “one country, two systems” will not change.The article marks the latest in Peking’s propaganda barrage aimed at convincing Hong Kong the Communists want peaceful reincorporation with the capitalist enclaves.Extremists skip trial WEST BERLIN (Reuter)—Two of nine suspected West German extremists accused of setting up an illegal neo-Nazi organization in West Berlin failed to appear for the start of their trial Monday.The court issued an arrest warrant for one of the missing men, Kerstin Sydov, 21, but gave the second man time to explain his absence.The seven others refused to answer the charges.The defendants, aged 20 to 28, are accused of forming the paramilitary German Workers Youth Group in 1982 with the aim of establishing a racist dictatorship and restoring the German Reich within 1914 borders.Five jailed for art theft ROME (Reuter) — A Rome court on Monday jailed five Italians for stealing masterpieces from a Budapest museum, a theft which set off a hunt by police forces of three European countries and Interpol.After a one-day trial, Giordano Incerti, Grazia-no lori and Carmine Palmese were each sentenced to four years and nine months imprisonment, and Giacomo Morini and Ivano Scianti to four years and six months each.They were convicted of stealing two Raphaels, two Tintorettos, two Tiepolos and a Giorgione, with an estimated total value of $30 million, from the State Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest last Nov.5-6.Gov’t accused of killing 45 rebels NEW DELHI (AP) — Afghanistan's state radio said Monday that government forces killed 45 anti Marxist rebels and wounded 20 in western Herat province.It also claimed heavy casualties were suffered elsewhere by the Moslem insurgents, who have been fighting the Soviet-backed regime for five years.More than 100,000 Soviet troops have been trying to put down the insurgency.Western reporters generally are not allowed to travel in Afghanistan, making claims of both sides difficult to verify.v The KK(’OKI)—Tuesday, October 16.1984—3 The Townships Seconl Police make record-breaking drug seizure in Ascot fugitive’s home By Charles Bury SHERBROOKE — Sometimes a second look makes all the difference.Police turned up a full kilogram of pure cocaine, 14 pounds of hashish, two more weapons, a professional movie camera and some sophisticated drug-testing gear as they spent Monday combing through a Dunant Street home they had raided and searched Friday and Saturday.In the first search at 1700 Dunant, Ascot Township, members of the Québec Police Force Eastern Townships drug squad found an estimated $100,000 in stolen jewelry, over $30,000 in U.S.and Canadian cash, five loaded guns, 1000 tablets of PCP (angel dust), about two pounds of hashish ($6000) and a small quantity of cocaine ($2500).The legal owner of the buil- ding, Louise Legault, 26, was arrested and a Canada-wide warrant was issued for the arrest of her concubine, Yvon Daviault, 38.But police, who had gone ‘underground’ for over two months to catch Daviault, weren’t satisfied with the haul, even though it was one of the biggest seizures of illegal drugs and stolen property in regional history.So Monday they decided to go for the Guiness Book of Eastern Townships records.“We had a feeling there was more there than we had found the first time,” QPF Cpl.Patrick Hall told reporters at an impromptu press conference late Monday night.“So we went back for a second look.” Within hours the drug squad had qualified for the record book — which will have to be re-written.Hall and QPF Dets.Yvon Sullivan, To demolish or not.that is the question SHERBROOKE — Ascot Township council has a new problem on its hands.Township officials were called to 1700 Dunant Street after police discovered the building in “disgusting” condition during a drug raid Friday.The home was found with several rooms piled high with bags of old garbage, and with several months of uncollected mess left behind by a great dane.After a visit by councillor Maurice Guilbeault Saturday, inspectors were called in to decide on the future of the ramshackle wood-frame structure Monday was inspection day as representatives of the municipal health and environment departments, the provincial health, environment, agriculture and commerce ministries and the federal government toured the former restaurant—with their gloves on.Ascot Mayor Robert Pouliot and councillors Guilbeault and Jean-Guy Landry also inspected the premises.It will be up to their council to decide whether the building can be restored to a healthy state or must be demolished.Hospitalized woman facing more drug charges SHERBROOKE — Louise Legault, who remains unconscious in a Sherbrooke hospital, is facing more criminal accusations than she knows about.Legault, 26, was arrested following a police raid on her home at 1700 Dunant Streeet in Ascot Township Friday.She was suffering from cocaine bums to much of her face, acute addiction and many bruises.Police are still hunting for her concubine, Yvon Daviault, 38.But Saturday Legault was charged with possession of narcotics (50 grams of cocaine) with intent to traffick.The woman was remanded for custody in the care of Sherbrooke Hospital psychiatrist Dr.Pierre Gagné.She has since been given heavy sedatives as she comes ‘cold turkey’ out of a long period of drug abuse.Police said Monday she will likely remain unconscious for a week as she becomes “disentoxicated.” Monday Crown prosecutors added to the accusations against Legault: she is now also charged with possession of 744 tablets of PCP (angel dust, an illegal tranquilizer formerly used on large animals), 100 tablets of LSD and 393 grams of hashish.However police say Legault was more of a prisoner than a partner of fugitive Daviault, and was kept in conditions “like a slave.” Mario Lapalme and Paul Godbout put on gloves and masks (the Daviault home was filled with garbage and excrement and may be condemned), and went back inside the former Restaurant de la Montagne.“We went over the whole place a quarter of an inch at a time.” And things went better the second time around.The police found a Beaulieu 16-mm sound camera.They found a .38 calibre revolver and a hundred rounds of ‘wadcutter’ ammunition (the type which expands on impact, making a large exit hole in the target.They found a sawed-off 12 gauge shotgun (a favorite of hold-up artists).They kept on looking.Finally, after a 2V2-hour search, they turned up the goods they thought were there: a full kilogram of 98 per cent pure cocaine, complete in its South American wrapper, with an estimated street value of of $1.2 million ; 14 one-pound bricks of hashish valued at about $50,000 and a pair of sophisticated drug-testing kits the police don’t even have in their own equipment.“The coke was hidden in an enclosure behind the base of the chimney in the basement,” an exultant Sullivan.“The hash and the guns were in a six-inch space between the ceiling of the basement cold-storage room and the kitchen floor.” “We took the whole place apart with axes.” Police say suspect Daviault was an important figure in the Sherbrooke-area drug trade.They described him as “an important go-beteen among several groups.” They say he acted as a storage and distribution “jobber" for others who owned the drugs.Police say downtown Sherbrooke drug afficionadoes in particular will have to wait in line for supplies as a result of the current investigation.Police continued to refuse to link the Daviault raids with one on the clubhouse of the Gitans motorcycle club in nearby Lennox ville Thursday But non-police observers close to the drug scene say they are anxious to see if the Gitans’ customers become restless in light of the sudden shortage.Hall, Sullivan and company had to wait in line before they entered the building Monday afternoon as municipal, provincial and federal inspectors examined the dilapidated proper ty, which was found in an extremely unsanitary condition At the late-night press conference, it was dozens of QPF officers who waited in line for a chance to view the remains of Daviault’s drug-peddling network and congratulate the drug squad for what Hall and QPF publie- Weighing the evidence.MK»- te, ¦ A dealer's dream.Pure and uncut cocaine.RECORD/PERRY BEATON 1/ relations officer René Côté called the biggest seizure in Eastern Townships history.All the squad failed to turn up Monday were suspect Davialut and his dog.Daviault had told his lawyer after the first search Friday that he would turn himself in to police Saturday.But he never showed up He is now being sought by every police force in the country.The dog, a huge, friendly great dane which Sullivan says "hid from us when we came the first time,” was left in the building but somehow escaped Sunday Although the drugs and weapons seized Monday will likely end up destroyed when the investigation is complete, police intend to keep some of the criminal goods for themselves.They say the sophisticated drug testing kits, marked ‘Cocaine Police Field Analysis’, will come in handy in the budget cutting atmosphere of 1984.“We don’t even have these ourselves,” Sullivan said."At least we didn’t until now.” M RECORD'PERRY BEATON Among the stash taken from the basement of 1700 Dunant

and teachers are busy discussing region five’s economic and social problems this week in the last stage of the preliminary forums that lead up to the much-publicized sommet socio-economique scheduled for early next year.On the agenda of the regional forum, which began Monday in Sherbrooke and ends today, are 182 propositions which were chosen from an original list of 345.They range from proposals to move the Sherbrooke airport to building a Donald Morrison village in Lac Me-gantic to improving the region’s roads.Some are rather mysterious, such as one to “create a key society”, but all are well-intentioned attempts to revive the Townships’ sagging economy.The 260 people discussing the 182 propositions are from all over the region, including mayors, businessmen, UPA representatives and social workers.Adrien Péloquin, mayor of Windsor and Y van Scalabrini of the UPA in Compton are on the list.Russell Po-cock of Compton, Fred Korman, owner of Owl’s Head ski resort and Wells Coates, warden of St.Francis MRC, are among the few English-speaking Townshippers invited to participate.The MNAs and MPs of the region are also invited to the two-day forum, but only as observers ; the same goes for government officials representing federal and provincial ministries.In all, some 300 people were invited to attend.The propositions have gone through a long selection process.Various regional committees went over them in the first stages, dividing them up into various sectors and levels of priority.An orientation committee drew up the final list of 182 propositions, and labelled 48 of them as being “major”.They are divided into 15 sectors, each based on one or more guidelines called axes de dévelopment.In the farm and food sector, the propositions were selected with marketing, new productions and jobs for farmworkers in mind.In the environment sector, the main goals are building water treatment plants all over the Eastern Townships and finding ways to create jobs at the same time.The 260 members of the forum spent Monday debating the axes de dévelopment in workshops and plenary sessions where they were accepted or rejected by vote.The actual propositions will be debated Tuesday, and about 50 will be chosen to be part of the summit in January.At the summit, politicians will be pressed by regional delegates to put the chosen propositions into action.It will be televised live on January 28,29 and 30.Although organizers hope all their work will result in concrete gover-ment action, most feel the real value of the summit, and the forums leading up to it, is the fact the region is defining its problems so precisely.Monday’s session was attended by 220 of the 260 people invited, and they talked so much they didn’t have time to finish.In fact, they even voted against a motion to finish the plenary session at 5:30 p.m., after starting at 9 in the morning.They continued until after 6.Jean Charest, MP for Sherbrooke, was there Monday and said he plans to be back Tuesday.He came for two reasons; it involves his riding, and he will probably be invited to the summit.“It’s necessary for regions to define their priorities,” Charest said.“Even if we determine by the end results whether it was useful or not, it’s cer tainly a necessary exercise.” The government will have to pay some attention to what goes on in the summit, especially with issues which are not just regional.One sector is devoted to employment, and one of the biggest propositions in that depa r-tment calls for a national look at Ca nada’s working habits.“It’s interesting because it’s not a regional issue,” said Charest.“It’s one of the big decisions of the gover nment — which way we are going to deal with unemployment.Are we going to redefine the work week and work habits?” For Wells Coates, the purpose of the summit is to give the region's decision-makers some direction over the next decade.“It’s more a general orientation for region five over the next five to ten years,” he said after spending his day in workshops and the plenary session.“If we can come to some sort of agreement, the goverment will not be able to overlook that,” he continued “Of course if there is too much dissen tion, nothing will happen.” There won’t be very much dissen-tion at the end of the two-day forum, according to summit president Wilfred Morin He is predicting there will be a consensus in 14 of the 15 sectors.“It was a productive day,” he said.The fifteenth sector which no one can come to agreement on is called pouvoir régionale.It is an old debate about who should make the decisions at the local level — elected officials who are responsible to the public, or members of local organizations, who are probably more in touch with an area’s problems Coates, elected as warden of St.Francis MRC, thinks the only people who should make decisions are the ones who can be held accountable by the election process.The most important thing, however, is to reach agreement on this nagging issue.“If we are too immature to work together they will contimue to make decisions in some office in Quebec City without all the necessary facts and figures,” he said.Morin brushes off the problem, though.“We have made progress with the present framework, and will continue to do so," he said “We won’t wait for a decsion on regional power." Wells Coates.Long-term orientation.Mayor boots talkative councillor Coté from future secret city hall meetings SHERBROOKE — It was a busy night at Sherbrooke’s City Hall Monday and the evening began with Municipal Councillor André Côté being banned from attending closed-door workshops “until further notice.” Côté, the controversial representative of District 12, was banned from the meetings by Mayor Jean-Paul Pelletier, who cited Côté’s refusal to follow the council’s rules of confidentiality regarding the workshops, at which potential projects are discussed by councillors, city bureaucrats and interested parties.Pelletier, in announcing his decision, referred to the Place Andrew Paton project which will see the site of the old Paton Textile Mills transformed into low-cost subsidised housing, boutiques and condominiums After a recent workshop, said Pelletier, Côté revealed to Sherbrooke’s La Tribune the fact that the city would be prepared to go to court to force developpers to obey municipal construction regulations.Côté’s banishment from the workshops is only the latest in a series of quarrels between the outspoken councilman and his colleagues.Côté has frequently disagreed with the council’s general consensus on various issues and has not hesitated to state his dissent publicly.Ironically, one of the first disagreements between Côté and the mayor and his council came when the latter decided to ban news media from these same workshops.Under the previous administration of Jacques O’Bready, whom Pelletier defeated in the election of 1982, the workshops and all discussions were open to the press.Côté argued that denying the press access to the workshops gave the impression that Council had something to hide.Since then.Côté has frequently been the only source of information regarding certain council plans and projects.In defending his decision, Pelletier said “because of the informal nature of these workshops, there have always been certain rules of conduct, among them respecting the confidentiality of the dossiers under study.Recently, Councillor Côté has ignored this rule flagrantly.Therefore, as is my right, I have decided not to invite Councillor Côté to these meetings until further notice.” Côté, uncharacteristically, has refused to comment.SUBURBAN FIRE SERVICES In other business.Councillor Jean-Yves Laflamme has asked that council pass a resolution giving notice to the municipalities of Ascot, Fleuri-mont.Rock Forest and St-Elie d’Or-ford that unless a new agreement is signed between them and Sherbrooke regarding fire department services, the city will cease providing these services to the suburbs within 90 days.In making his request, Laflamme said the $217,000 received from the su- burbs by the city last yea r was grossly insufficient to cover the cost of providing fire service and said the city requires at least $694,762 for 1985.Laflamme said this figure is still less than the almost $2 million it would cost the suburbs if they were billed according to the present per capita rate ($58) paid by Sherbrooke taxpayers for fire protection services.The $694,000 figure, Laflamme said, is calculated to approximate the cost of responding to individual calls.REFERENDUM November 18 has been set aside as the date when more than 1,000 residents of Sherbrooke's North Ward will have the opportunity to vote on whether to accept the city’s plans to rezone a section of municipal land on the comer of Jacques Cartier Boulevard and Portland Street The city wants to change the zoning classification of the Nicol Woods to allow for construction of a residential complex on the site While present zo- ning regulations allow for construction of apartment buildings on the Jacques Cartier section of the land, and of duplexes on the Portland section, they are incompatible with the the 200 unit project 's Châteaux du boisé planned by developpers and accepted by the city.Residents of the area have been upset with what some have described as the ‘bulldozer’ mentality of the city with regard to this project and 140 signed a petition demanding a referendum on the issue.The city now has the choice to hold a referendum or to withdraw the rezoning by-law CHARMES City council has given the go-ahead to a proposal from the Comité d’Hy-giéne ef d amenagement des Rivières Magog et St-Francois (CHARMES) for a project calling for the creation of an ‘ecological and tourism sector’ along the rivers’ banks within Sherbrooke municipal limits.The plan — the result of four years of intensive research and study — calls for an investment of approximately $2 million, almost two thirds of which will be paid for by the federal and provincial governments It includes, among other things, the establishment of municpal campgrounds, cycle trails, fishing spots, a hydroelectric power museum, suspended bridges, observation platforms and cafés terraces as well as several clean-up projects — notably a plan to clean out garbage and undergrowth from the downtown gorges where the Magog approaches its conjunction with the St.Francis Raymomd Demers, vice-president of the project committee, says the main purpose of the plan is ecological and adds that its primary function will be to revive the recreational uses of the river that have been allowed to deteriorate over the last few decades."But this project also has an economic value," he says.f 4_The HKC’ORl)—Tuesday, October 16, 19H4 fteconl The Voice of the Eastern Townships since 1897 Editorial A reasonably good sense of what’s good for him Joe Average wakes at 6 a m.to the sound of music on his clock radio.He clicks off the switch, pullshimself outof bed and heads to the shower.Average uses his name-brand soap and shampoo, dries himself off with one of those terrycloth towels listed on sale in the newspapers and heads downstairs for breakfast where he has a glass of milk, two eggs, bacon, toast and coffee.He lights up a smoke, kisses his wife goodbye and heads out to his compact, Japanese-built car.He strikes off for work.A regular day in the life of almost anyone who works.Joe Average uses a clock radio, soap, shampoo, terrycloth towels, milk, eggs, bacon, toast, coffee, cigarettes and a compact car.He has the choice of whether he wants to buy and use them or not, and to decide what brand he’ll purchase, Joe Average will usually look at or listen to advertisements.Joe Average is a mature adult who has a reasonably good sense of judgment.He knows what’s good or bad for him and his wife, 2.3 children, dog and cat.He doesn’t need someone else deciding what he should be subjected to in the form of advertisement.Joe Average has the right to decide on what he wants to do right now but if some people in this country have their way he won’t in the near future.OnCBC radio’s Cross Country Checkup Sunday night, callers were asked if cigarette advertising should be banned.During one half-hour period about 80 per cent replied that it should, and there are pressure groups pushing for the proposal to become law.They are telling Joe Average what is good for him and what he shouldn’t know about.It’s true that cigarette smoking causes cancer.It is addictive and sure, advertising can pursuade individuals to keep on slowly killing themselves.But why should one group of people dictate what another group can or can’t see or hear in a free society?Joe Average could just as easily have died from too much cholesterol in his breakfast, in a car crash because his compact was too small to properly protect him, or even from the fairly large amounts of alcohol he takes every night during cocktail hour.He knows all that yet he continues on the same path in his life because he has a reasonably good sense of what’s good for him and what’s not.Joe Average doesn’t need somebody else making up his mind.BOBBY FISHER The rude attitude of the girl behind the counter Bruce Levett Gee it's nice to be greeted with a smile and a happy “Have a nice day now”.People who go out of their way to be pleasant and make your life a little happier are worth their weight in gold to any employer.Recently I’ve been treated to a number of giant contrasts in attitudes and I'm not sure if I need check my deodorant or if I’ve discovered a curious Quebec phenomenon Returning from Montreal last week, after shipping two puppies to Mexico City, we decided our hunger couldn’t wait until we got home to Mansonville Eve alluded to a craving for greasy french fries and since we were near Farnham, we decided to forego the by pass and drop by a popular Frites and Steamée shop in the middle of town I’m not sure if the unfriendly, rude attitude of the girl behind the counter was prompted because of the hint of English accent in Eve’s French or because she’d had a bad day.Her slovenly approach to serving our order and her obvious distaste for serving us was enough for us to vow never to return.And we won’t.I guess the loss of one customer to this unfriendly employee doesn’t make much difference.However in these economically troubled days the loss of even one customer is of great importance to her employer.A QUEBEC FACT?The rude employee is the phenomenon that seems to be a Quebec fact.This summer I’ve spent quite a bit of time in Ontario and in Vermont.Generally speaking everyone you meet has a pleasant word and the understanding that business gained by an employee reflects back on the company and results in longer employment and salary increases.The employee who loses business for the company is only Where the pavement ends JIM LAWRENCE » X.t y Aha! So THAT’S it! Like many of you — I am sure — I had been wondering about the paucity of sasquatch sightings emanating from the misty valleys of British Columbia of late.And suddenly the answer comes clear — the reticent rascals have packed up and moved to Manitoba without telling anyone William M Borody, head of the Manitoba Sasquatch Research Centre, is reported as saying there have been some 300 sasquatch sightings in his bailiwick since 1975.Well, I guess it's poetic justice in a way.B.C.swiped the abominable snowman from Nepal and christened it sasquatch ; Washington state purloined it from B.C.and called it bigfoot Monster purloining has, of course, been around for a long time.We Canadians are experts at it.Take the Loch Ness monster, for instance.(And, as a matter of fact, we did.) Nessie prowls a lake in Scotland.More reclusive than the sasquatch, even, she bobs up every now and then to scare the gaiters off unsuspecting vicars as they cycle by They have been after a provable picture of Nessie for an eternity.SURFACES IN CANADA And so, is it any wonder that, in the fullness of time, something similar surfaces off a Canadian shore?Meet Cadborosorous (‘‘Caddy’’ for short) who makes his or her home in the Victoria area.It worked so well that it wasn't long before Kelowna, B.C., surfaced with its own version — enter Ogopogo, the darling of Lake Okanagan.Monsters are marketable commodities.Festivals are held in their name; souvenirs are struck in their image.One enterprising young lad went to the extreme of inventing an electronic yo-yo based on one.It was not one of your everyday, garden-variety yoyos that merely goes up and down and around and about.Oh, dear, no It featured a tiny, built-in turbine.This turbine was activated by the spinning of the yo-yo, thus lighting up the tiny bulbs spaced around the perimeter When attempting the cat’s-cradle or, indeed, the more difficult walking the-dog, the person on the other end of the string caused the illumination to pick out a ghostly outline of a dragon-like serpent At least, that was the theory.He christened it Ogopogo Go-Go Yo-Yo, but the world was not yet ready.The yo-yo sank like the monster and the young lad went on to more responsible pursuits — journalism, if memory serves.precipitating the loss of employment.When there is a choice of stores or restaurants customers will choose the one that offers the best service and the friendliest reception.In Ontario we found ourselves welcomed by sales girls, waitresses and business people.Eve, who normally will kill over a suspected slight to her province, was the first to notice the difference.A real estate saleslady from A.E.LePage in Peterborough busted her proverbial “butt” for us, and even treated us to lunch after she knew no sale was in the near future.Yvonne Brown typified the treatment we received just over the border.In contrast was the slow, bad service received at the first restaurant this side of the Ontario/Quebec border.TOURIST DOLLARS Last summer the point was driven even deeper.We had driven to Magog one morning and decided to stop for lunch in one of the many restaurants on the main street.As Magog sucks quite a number of tourist dollars from visiting vacationers you might expect some effort might be made to make visitors welcome.We sat in the restaurant about fifteen minutes before the waitress could tear herself away from her important discussion with another waitress.With no words at all she dumped a handful of silverware and two menus on the table and returned to her discussion.When she returned a few minutes later she said, “Eh bien?” and took the order, which was given in Eve’s tainted French.The food was not good and was also cold.The coffee arrived with the bill.The only words spoken by the waitress during the entire transaction were “Eh bien?”.I didn’t tip.HUGE CONTRAST That afternoon we drove through North Troy and did some shopping in Newport, Vermont.We decided to stay down for the drive-in and took the group to one of the restaurants on the main street.The contrast was huge and immediate.We had barely sat down when the waitress arrived to make us welcome and offer us a coffee while we looked through the menu.I won’t detail her performance and the fact that I did leave a tip speaks for itself.The food was not exciting, but it was good and was served well and quickly.The second cup of coffee that arrived without asking was welcome.We felt we were appreciated and were served as if she wanted us to come back.We have! Having visited two restaurants in one day, and been treated so differently in them, we were able to make a fair comparison.People shop where they are treated well.Bad treatment not only reflects on the individual business but also on the city, and on the province.VISITORS NOT ACCEPTED?How must our visitors from the U.S.A.feel when they are greeted with sullen, rude service?We even gooutof our way to paint out the English on our road signs to let them know their language is not acceptable.Shoppers in Montreal are subjected to treatment usually reserved for escaped convicts and those who use no deodorant.The visible distaste for providing service is broken only occasionally by someone who stands out like a beacon on a dark night.People in the service business must be prepared to provide service.That service must appear to be given freely with a desire to please, and not miserly allotted in carefully measured doses.SENSES LOST?I’m not accusing anybody, or any language group, and certainly not criticizing any upheaval of social systems instituted by a particular “public-right” oriented government.However Quebec seems to have taken loss of its senses as far as following through on its tourist slogan of “Friendly Quebec”.We seem to be friendly to those we know, our personal friends, and those we know have a lot of money to spend.A Caddy parked at the curb has a tremendous effect on the attitude of the salesgirl.We seem to reserve our worst for strangers, even though they represent the “profit” in most businesses.The “if you don’t like it.get out” attitude does little to bring people back.Many of the people who have fled this province have done so because they felt no longer welcome.The tax income and business profit they represent is huge, and in a province that is almost bankrupt it seems a strange attitude to allow.Any businessman is a fool to treat his customers badly and drive them away.Are we as Quebecers so unhappy we allow our internal problems to effect our day-to-day dealings with others?For a province whose people have a world reputation for laughing and partying, singing and joking, to develop this new, strange attitude something must be wrong somewhere.Letters Concern over the balance of nature Dear Sirs : I have read with dismay about the deaths of thou-sands of caribou by drowning in the swollen waters of the Caniapiscau River in northern Quebec.The deaths of these magnificent animals represents a major ecological disaster, and is compounded by thousands of carcasses littering the shores of the river which are rapidly becoming a subsequent threat to the water quality of the Ca-niapsicau.Every year at this time the caribou herd migrates from the Labrador coast towards the west, as the herd has done year after year long before the intrusion of man.Allegations have arisen that Quebec Hydro opened one of its spillways on the James Bay hydro project reservoir several weeks ago precipating the disaster.In turn Quebec Hydro counters that an unusually high level of pre-cipation this year is responsible for creating a disaster that is of natural and not manmade origins.We applaud the efforts of the local Inuits who are attempting to prevent further deaths by heading off another estimated 10,000 animals that are continuing their annual migration.However even if they are successful in their attempts, provisions to ensure that the animals can reach their overwintering areas must be made, or further problems will result.The World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) is comprised of more than 360 member organizations and thousands of individual members in more than 60 countries.The Society is the only international animal protection organization that is recogni- w w\s' tlECT^ zed by and has official consultative status with the United Nations.In South America when when hydroelectric dams caused major flooding of tropical rainforests, WSPA organized native rescue teams to save over 14,000 animals from drowning and starvation.Rescuing large number of terrified animals after the fact is a massive and complex effort, that is costly both in terms of funds and in the resulting loss of habitat and animal life.The Society joins with other animal protection and conservation organizations in expressing our concern ovei* the balance of nature, and deploring environmental changes that are likely to disturb this deli- cate balance without compensatory safeguards.We urge the federal and provincial governments to conduct an immediate examination of the circumstances surrounding this tragedy and are we are willing to offer our assistance to ensure that such a loss never repeats itself.The term ‘wild and free’ may rapidly be approaching a hollow and meaningless phrase of the past.f3I remain, your

threatens celestial traffic By Christopher Hanson LONDON (Reuter) — Man has turned space into such a junkyard that collisions between vital spacecraft and orbiting debris are inevitable unless an urgent international clean-up is organized, a new book warns.Encircling Earth is a belt of space garbage — defunct satellites, paraphernalia jettisoned from spacecraft, and thousands of metal fragments produced by explosions in space.Unless an international agreement is quickly reached to start cleaning up the mess, many commercial and military spacecraft will be at risk because of the rising likelihood of collisions, says Jane’s Spaceflight Directory.The book, published by Jane's Publishing Company, says there is already evidence of several ‘‘catastrophic’’ collisions with orbiting debris — two involving Soviet Cosmos nuclear-powered satellites (one was disabled, one broke apart) and a 1976 instance in which a U S.orbital bal loon disintegrated.CRACKED SCREEN The Soviet Salyut 6, amanned spacecraft, also evidently was damaged by debris, the book says.And Western experts believe a piece of space debris slightly cracked the windscreen of the U.S.space shuttle Challenger during a flight last February.The publishing company issues regular studies on ships, aircraft and weapons that are regarded as highly authoritative.“More collisions are inevitable,” the book says, adding that the worst feature of the hazard is that thousands of pieces of debris are too small to be tracked, yet are dangerous to spacecraft.‘ The threat to men in space and their hopes of establishing permanent orbiting platforms steadily increases.” President Reagan announced last January that the United States would begin work on a permanently manned space station for up to eight astronauts.Moscow has maintained a space station in orbit for more than a decade.REFINE CHEMICALS Western commercial plans include space factories to exploit zero gravity in refining chemicals, producing medicines and creating ultra-pure crystals for use in computers.Space debris could jeopardize such operations.Satellites used for communications and early warning of nuclear attack would al- so be at risk because they and much of the space debris orbit in close proximity, roughly 37,000 kilometres from the Earth’s surface.U.S.and European space experts say a greater risk than collision would be satellites clustering too close together and interfering with each other’s communications — which could happen if too many new ones are sent aloft.A great deal of the orbiting garbage is the result of more than 70 explosions in space, the Jane’s book says.Eleven U.S.Delta rockets have exploded in orbit accidentally, but the problem with the Deltas apparently has been corrected.TEST WEAPONS There have also been at least nine deliberate explosions in space in which Soviet interceptor craft were manoeuvred to collide with target satellites to test an antisatellite — ASAT — weapon.Washington is prefecting a more advanced ASAT system.‘‘An international agreement banning deliberate explosions in space and measures to control and reduce debris are becoming urgent,” the Jane’s book says.It says a partial solution would be a spe- cially ucsiguated orbit — a space junkyard — where discarded material could be dumped.The book — which bills itself as “the first ever fully comprehensive guide to the .activities of the world’s space powers” — acknowledges that both the Pentagon and the Kremlin take pains to monitor space debris in hopes of avoiding collisions.IDENTIFY OBJECTS The U.S.Air Force uses powerful telescopes thatn can identify objects the size of a football as far as 37,000 kilometres away.But much smaller objects can do damage.NORAD — the North American Aerospace Defence Command — maintains a constant watch on space, in part to detect satellites and debris that are about to fall toward earth.Under a United Nations treaty, each country is responsible for any damage caused by its returning space debris and in 1978 Moscow had to pay compensation after its nuclear-powered Cosmos 954 fell into Canadian territory.Western scientists say more than 9,000 man-made objects have fallen from orbit since the first sattelite, the Soviet Sputnik, was launched in October 1957, The KKt'ORI)—Tuesday, October 16, 19W—5 Farm and business —___ itecora Clear-cutting threatening river Cutting down trees along the banks of a river leave fields exposed to erosion by spring floodwaters.sags* ^4 •V ¦**&¦ puiü P-mr A classic case of E.T.soil erosion BRIGHAM — This is erosion about to happen.By Merritt Clifton STANBRIDGE EAST — Clear-cutting for woodchip production alongside the Pike River has Stan-bridge East residents concerned about erosion, flooding, and what’s going to be done with the land once it’s cleared.Montreal landowner Jacques La-palme is selling about 150 acres of softwood timber located parallel to Blinn Road, abutting the Pike just downstream from Boffin Creek.A mix of birch, soft maple, and evergreens, most of the timber has already been mechanically harvested for chipping and eventual use in the controversial McNeil woodburning power plant at Burlington, Vermont.The McNeil plant came on line earlier this year, surviving five years of ardent opposition by environmentalists who feared cutting to feed it would strip Vermont’s scenic Green Mountains.Plant backers countered by pledging to buy about two-thirds of their chips from Quebec and upstate New York — about 50 truckloads of chips per day.The Lapalme cut is carefully following Quebec logging regulations.A fifty-metre buffer zone beside the Pike River will be respected, and virtually all of the cutting is on flat ground.But that’s small consolation to the neighboring Blinn family, dairy and sheep farmers alongside the Pike for generations.“Maybe these are all fast-growing trees as trees grow,” Jerry Blinn says, strolling into the clear-cut zone along an abandoned dirt road still owned by Stanbridge East municipality.“But it still took a hundred years for them to grow up this way, and it’ll take another hundred years to grow them again.” The cutting zone includes a deer yard, Blinn claims.Nearby apple growers have already had to fence off some of their trees to prevent damage in winter from hungry deer.Loss of their native habitat so close to winter will almost certainly send the deer into the orchards more than ever.Blinn is also worried about flooding.“It looks high and dry now,” he gestures, waving at the woods and adjacent fields, “but every spring this is all underwater.We’re almost on an island,” he explains.“Our house and bam don’t get flooded, but everything else does.Lapalme wanted to take over that back road,” he continues, “but the town kept it as a ‘recreational road’, partly in case we had to have some way to drive our livestock out if the river rose high enough to flood the bam.“With no trees left on 100 acres or more to hold the topsoil,” Blinn said, “all that flooding might carry a lot of it right down into the Pike, and that’s going to make sandbars and could cause even more flooding.” The soil on the Lapalme property is mostly high-grade sand.In fact, a portion of the property beside the clear-cutting zone was for many years one of the area’s best sand quarries.Blinn guesses the quarry was opened in the 1930s, when portions of the cutting zone were allowed to return to woodlands after having once been cleared for farming.In the short run, the biggest impact upon the Blinns is economic.“We used to rent Lapalme’s open fields here,” Murray Blinn explains, “but now he’s said we can’t do that any more, that he has other plans for it.He won’t say what those plans are,” he adds.The Blinns now must find new hayfields to rent, not abundant in their vicinity, or buy hay.Meanwhile, they worry about the long run — what Lapalme is going to do when he combines the existing fields with the clear-cut hundred acres.He might plant an orchard.Reportedly, he already owns at least one apple orchard near Frelighsburg.But the best bet, the Blinns believe, is that he’s going to go into Christmas trees, as other entrepreneurs have recently done in the Stanbridge East area.If Lapalme starts a Christmas tree plantation, conventional practice requires him to use large amounts of herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides.“There’s no way he can spray and not come close to our house,” Jerry Blinn points out.“His field comes right up beside us.” “It’s a damned shame,” Murray grouses, “that somebody can come along and do something that tears up the woods like this and is going to affect everybody in the neighborhood, maybe all up and down the river, and they don’t even have to tell anybody what their plans are.We don’t know.The guys doing the cutting don’t know.Nobody knows anything but Lapalme, and he’s off in Montreal somewhere.” Lapalme is the same Jacques Lapalme who led a major protest on Parliament Hill several years ago after the Trudeau government ceased awarding intercity mail-hauling contracts to private truckers.The National Energy Board, supposed to regulate projects involving energy exports, has already dismissed woodchip production for the McNeil plant as outside their jurisdiction.NEB spokeswoman Anne Sir-cotte says their mandate extends only to oil, gas, and electricity.Sircotte says she doesn’t know who, if anyone, does regulate woodchip exports, although the Canadian Transport Commission regulates the manner of shipping.Meanwhile, buyers for the McNeil plant have already contracted to purchase thousands more acres of Eastern Townships softwood, from unspecified sites.The crawler-mounted shears cutting down the trees alongside the Pike River could soon become a familiar site.Like hundreds of other Eastern Townships farmers, this farmer in Brigham municipality figured he’d ‘improve’ his land during the fall fallow period He’d bulldoze his cornfield into an evenly contoured surface, better for the farm machinery, and while he was at it, get rid of all the trees and brush along the Ya-maska River bank.He’d get an extra acre, maybe two, from an afternoon’s chainsawing.What he has now is a textbook example of how not to do it, so classic that one local ecology teacher has students driving by to take a look.Without the trees and brush, there’s little to hold the river bank in place.When the Yamaska rises and flows much more rapidly, as it does every spring during snowmelt, the lower part of this field is always flooded.Before, however, the trees and brush held the topsoil together.Now, there’s nothing to stop this whole cleared acre from washing right on down the river.The big rocks and handful of surviving trees will remain as a tiny island, separated from the rest of the field by a shallow gully whose water sta- gnates in late summer.How do we know?Because the Yamaska banks are littered with similar sites, both downstream and up.But that’s not all.Smoothing out the steeply sloping field eliminated the hollows and pockets that used to retain rainwater runoff, until the water could sink into the ground Now there's nothing to keep it from rushing right on to the river, car rying topsoil, fertilizer, herbicides, pesticides, and perhaps even young cornstalks with it.Anything liquid put on that field will probably land in the river within a week.The Yamaska is shallow in this vicinity, full of sandbars created by past erosion.When the new erosion adds to the accumulation, the river will be more shallow still, more likely to flood and cut into the banks in other places.Multiply this field by hundreds, even thousands, and one sees why Alain Parent of Agriculture Canada’s Lennoxville research station believes the Eastern Townships is losing 13,000 tonnes of topsoil per year.Nationwide, Agriculture Ca nada says farmers are losing in come of $1 billion per year because of erosion.But Quebec agriculture minister Jean Garon said recently, in response to a Senate recommendation, that for provincial premiers to discuss erosion would be "ridiculous.” Because he did his bulldozing late, this farmer now can’t prevent losing his topsoil If he'd started back in August, he could have stopped erosion by seeding the whole field with something fast growing and densely rooted — winter wheat or buckwheat.It's also too late this year to replant all the dogwood, willow, and alder he hacked out and burned last week.He’ll have to do that next spring — and use no-till cultivation methods.Contour plowing would be his next best bet, but it's difficult to do in a field so small and steep, the reason he bulldozed it in the first place.A retaining wall wouldn’t help.The flooding river would only chop a channel behind it.But the farmer's doing nothing right now.He doesn’t believe in erosion.Agriculture Quebec has advised farmers to chop out brush and use more of their land more intensively And he’s only doing what other farmers up and down the river are, after all Merritt Clifton — Grain Board All feed grain of Canadian origin now qualifies under the freight assistance act, the Livestock Feed Board of Canada said August 28, 1984.As you know, the Fédération des cultures commerciales and the UPA had been calling for this change for some time.Farm associations in the Maritimes made representations which sought the same objective, that is, to allow all Canadian grains to be sold at the same price in the regions where freight assistance is given.Grain produced in Québec or the Maritimes did not qualify for freight assistance under the former program.Moreover, in order to be able to enter the qualifying regions, such grain had to be sold at the local price less the amount of the freight assistance.It should be pointed out that despite the Board’s statement, not all Canadian grains are eligible for freight assistance payments.To qualify it has to be commercially transacted grain.The freight assistance is paid by the Livestock Feed Board of Canada.Mills, meal manufacturers and retailers, and owners of home mixers or livestock feeders are all eligible as changes rules UPA ^NEWS long as they comply with the Board’s conditions.In addition, they must have an inspection or sampling certificate from the Canada Grain Commission or the Régie des grains du Québec.In 1983, freight assistance was given on 1,146,305 tons of Canadian grain.Québec’s animal feed consumption during the same year was estimated at 2.9 million tons.The value of freight assistance paid out totaled $3,694,817.It was paid on 40 per cent of the grains consumed and amounts, on average, to $3.22 a ton.The Livestock Feed Board of Canada is responsible for administering this program.For further information, you may contact the Board in Montréal at (514) 283-7505.*;**/( Vv' '}' 'i'v’.y//V,/; imm 7V.v.v>vyW.'»v.S W.M • emit U.S.lightens Israel’s load JERUSALEM (AP) — The Reagan administration has offered Israel a five-month respite in repaying its debts to the U.S.government, the Israeli Finance Ministry said today.Ministry spokesman Eli Yosef said in a telephone interview that the Reagan administration had offered the delay in order to examine legal aspects of writing off $500 million of Israel’s $9.6-billion debt to the United States.The $500 million would be due in the next five months without the delay, he said.Yosef said U.S.officials initiated the move with the intent of lightening Israel’s foreign debt burden.It was not yet clear whether the United States would write off more of Israel’s debt after the five-month period is over, he said.A temporary respite on debt repayment to the United States would allow the government to focus on battling inflation, estimated to be running at an annual rate of 400 per cent, Israel radio said.It said the five-month respite would ease pressure on Israel’s balance-of-payments deficit, which the Central Bureau of Statistics said was $2.4 billion during the first half of 1984.Paying interest on the debts has reduced Israel’s foreign currency reserves and debt service amounts to 16 percent of its $22-billion budget."If we don’t control inflation, it will destroy us,” Peres told the news conference after he returned from Washington on Sunday.But he told reporters: “I didn’t go as a beggar.I didn’t go for any particular amount of cash.’’ Peres said the U.S.government promised to pay all of next year’s $1.2-billion economic aid package to Israel in LET'S SEEYOU DO IT.OUTDOORS!

CHERRY CAKE 8 egg yolks 1 whole egg 1 tablespoon water 1 cup sugar ¥« cup fine dry bread crumbs ¥j cup finely ground almonds Vi teaspoon almond extract Vi cup cocoa Vi cup sifted all-purpose flour 8 egg whites 1 envelope (I tablespoon) unfiavored gelatine 2Vi cups whipping cream Vi cup sifted icing sugar pinch salt 1 teaspoon vanilla Vi teaspoon almond extract CHERRY FILLING Grated chocolate or chocolate curls Candied or maraschino cherries Heat oven to 350 degrees F.and grease and flour two 9-inch round layer cake pans (IW inches deep).Beat egg yolks, whole egg and 1 tablespoon of water together until thick and fluffy.This will take about 5 minutes at high speed on the mixer Add sugar gradually, beating well between each addition.Fold in bread crumbs, almonds and Vi teaspoon almond extract Sift cocoa and flour together into mixture and fold in ’til blended.Beat egg whites just stiff, but not dry.Fold into first mixture quickly but gently.Divide evenly between the two prepared pans and bake 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean if stuck in centre of cakes.Cool for a few minutes and then turn on racks to cool completely.Split each cake into two thin layers when cool.Put gelatine in a small dish and add 2 tablespoons water.Let stand five minutes.Set in pan of boiling water and heat until gelatine dissolves.Let cool about one minute.While the gelatine is dissolving and cooling, beat cream, icing sugar, salt, vanilla and Vi teaspoon almond extract until just beginning to thicken (I beat cream a little before additions.) Continue beating cream.If it starts to get stiff, turn down speed on mixer.Now add the gelatine in a very thin stream.Beat until the mixture forms stiff peaks.Put one of the thin layers on a serving plate.Top with Cherry Filling, spreading evenly.Add another layer of cake.Spread with about one-fourth of the whipped cream.Top with final layer of cake and ice whole outside of cake with the remaining cream.Sprinkle sides and top of cake generously with grated chocolate or chocolate curls.Unsweetened chocolate is best.Cut a few cherries in half and add to top of cake.Chill at least one hour before serving.Due to the gelatine in the whipped cream the cake will hold very well and can be made a day in advance.CHERRY FILLING 14-oz.can red pitted cherries 1 tablespoon cornstarch Vt teaspoon almond extract Drain cherries very well.Measure out V< cup cherry juice (adding a little water if necessary).Add cornstarch to juice in a small saucepan and stir until smooth.Set over high heat and bring to boil quickly, stirring constantly.Turn heat to low and cook one minute, stirring constantly.Remove from heat, add almond extract and cherries.Chill until thick and use for filling as directed in the recipe.This sounds like a lot of work but it is really very simple once you get started.Also sounds expensive but with it serving 12, is not really extravagant and for a special occasion, is really tops!

a remarkable recovery from breaking her hip on August 13.The deceased, Bessie Maclver, was born inTol-sta (Stornoway), Que., on April 26, 1895, a daughter of John L.Maclver and his wife Mary Morrison.As a young woman she went to work in Newton Highlands, Mass., along with many other young ladies of the area.On September 20, 1919 she was married to Kenneth M.Smith of Tolsta in Sherbrooke, Que.They lived in Graniteville, Vt., for some time before returning to Tolsta to assist her parents on the home farm, and caring for a brother prior to his death.In 1924 they moved to Scotstown, accompanied by her parents who were tenderly cared for until they passed away.She lived in the same house on Albert Street until 1983, when, because of failing eyesight, she went to live with her son Raymond in Cornwall, Ont.She was one of the founding members of St.Paul’s Presbyterian Church, and worked diligently to support the efforts of the church and the Ladies Circle as long as she was able.During the war years she greatly enjoyed working with the Red Cross sewing group and the Women’ s Institute.She was named a Life Member of the Women’s Missionary Society in 1954.The funeral service, directed by Gordon and Everett Boynton of the Bury Funeral Home, was held on September 25 from St.Paul’s Presbyterian Church, Scotstown.Rev.Blake Walker of Sherbrooke and Rev.J.Ross H.Davidson of Melbourne officiated, giving words of hope and encouragement to all present through readings from scripture and prayer.The singing of the hymns, “The Lord is my Shepherd” and “Unto the

sponsorship OTTAWA (CP) — The Canadian Curling Association, which dropped Air Canada as its official carrier a year ago, wants to know details about why the company is being dumped as world championships sponsor.Association president Clyde Opa-leychuk of Sudbury, Ont., said Monday he had sent a letter to Clif Thompson of Stroud, Ont , president of the International Curling Federation, and to all member countries seeking an explanation.He wants to know why, after spon- soring the Silver Broom men’s championship since 1968, Air Canada is being dropped after the 1985 final with a year stifl to go on its agreement with the federation He also wants to know why Hexagon International was named replacement sponsor effective May 1, 1985, before an August meeting in Montreal of the federation’s executive committee had approved the switch.Hexagon is a consorium that in eludes former world champion Chuck Hay of Scotland along with several other members of the federation executive board.Among these are Doug Maxwell, Silver Broom consultant with Air Canada until 1983, and Laurie Artiss of Regina, former Canadian representative to the ICF.The Royal Caledonia Curling Club of Scotland, world governing body of the sport, also is reported to have expressed deep concern at a weekend meeting in Glasgow about the Hexagon proposal.Opaleychuk said he would be raising these questions at a December meeting of the federation in Morzine, France.“We want to make it clear that we don’t have an axe to grind with the proposed sponsor, at least at this time,’’ Opaleychuk said in a news release.“But we are very concerned with the manner in which this whole thing was handled.“We are also concerned with the fact that a media release announcing Hexagon as the new sponsor was sent out before the general assembly of the ICF had been allowed to give its bles- sing.” As well as asking clarification of the decision, Opaleychuk will suggest that Air Canada be designated official carrier for the championships as a means of remaining part of the annual event.Ironically, it was Opaleychuk’s group that last year dropped Air Canada as official carrier in favor of rival CP Air.“It was a matter of economics,” CCA past president Ray Kingsmith of Calgary said at that time.“We made a proposal to them (Air Canada) which they wouldn’t agree to.” At that time, Kingsmith said it did not appear the Canadian decision concerning Air Canada would affect its continued association with the world championships.An Air Canada spokesman said after the federation’s Montreal decision that the company would shift its spon sorship interests to such sports as cross-country skiing, golf and minor hockey, where it already backs the national midget championships.Lafleur snaps slump in Habs’ win By John MacKinnon MONTREAL(CP) —The last time Guy Lafleur scored a regular-season National Hockey League goal he was a right winger, Pierre Trudeau was prime minister and Tom Kurvers was still in college.That was last March 1, when Rick Wamsley and Richard Sevigny were the Canadiens goaltenders and Steve Penney was a second-stringer with Nova Scotia Voyageurs But Monday night, Lafleur.a left winger now, broke a 30-game scoring drought as Montreal Canadiens beat Philadelphia Flyers 5-2 in the only NHL game scheduled.Lafleur hadn’t scored in the final 15 regular-season games last year, or in 12 playoff games.And he was without a goal in Montreal’s first two games this season “It’s a big load off my shoulders,” said Lafleur.who banged in Bobby Smith’s rebound “I’ve had my chances and I got two in pre season, but they don’t count ” GAINEY GETS TWO The Canadiens made the most of their chances early in the game, Scoring on three of their first four shots.Bob Gainey scored the first two and Larry Robinson made it 3-0 when he scored during a Montreal power play.Lafleur scored 11 seconds into the second period when he slipped Smith’s rebound through the pads of Velle Lindbergh, the Flyers goal tender Lafleur had other chances to •score, including one during a third-period Montreal power play.Mats Naslund fed him a pass and Lafleur tried to one-time a slap shot, but he hit the puck with the heel of his stick and it slid wide.Lafleur said all the Canadiens forwards will be more effective as a result of the work of their defence-men, especially Kurvers, the rookie out of University of Minnesota at Duluth, and Chris Chelios, the former U S.Olympic team member.“Every shot they're taking from the point is on the net, " Lafleur said.“And that is a big help.” DEFLECTS SHOTS Gainey deflected two of those well-placed shots — one by Kurvers, the other by Chelios — for his goals, which came one minute 41 seconds apart early in the opening period.Robinson’s power-play goal — a precise wrist shot from the point that found the top corner without benefit of deflection — made it 3-0.La-fleur’s goal extended the Montreal lead to 4-0 and sent the 15,908 Forum fans into delirium But Murray Craven and RickToc-chet, with his first NHL goal, silenced the crowd momentarily with goals 11 seconds apart beginning at 2:59 of the second period.Penney, who faced 23 shots in all, made two of his biggest stops early in the third period, when he got his blocker in front of a quick snap shot by Ron Sutter and spread-eagled to stop a shot by Len Hachbom on the rebound.The Canadiens regained control of the play as the period wore on and the crowd broke into its familiar “Guy, Guy” chant whenever Lafleur was on the ice.It was Naslund who added the insurance goal for the Canadiens, but this was fine with the fans.The crowd spent the rest of the game working on the wave.Chris Chelios.Part of a one-two American defensive punch.Detroit cleans up after Series DETROIT (AP) — Detroit began cleaning up Monday from a wave of violence that left one man dead, more than 80 injured and 34 jailed following a spontaneous celebration that erupted after the Tigers clinched their first World Series baseball title in 16 years.Outside Tiger Stadium, “it’s just as if there wasn’t a ball game,” said Walter Goolsby, assistant superintendent of the city’s department of public works.Goolsby said 30 sanitation employees worked overtime to rid the area of the bottles, cans and other debris left behind by revellers during a spree of vandalism and violence Sunday night.City officials, eager to put those hours of destruction in the past and emphasize the community’s pride in the team that won the Series trophy, scheduled a parade and rally in the team’s honor today.But the scars remained inside the stadium, where jubilant fans ripped out hunks of turf, gate markers and even the seats.“They’re a bunch of hoodlums,” Tigers general manager Jim Campbell said Monday.“I wish they’d stay away.” Work crews will spend the next month repairing damage — nearly twice as long as the usual postseason repairs, said stadium manager Ralph Snyder SIGNS STOLEN “Sometime during the night, all our gate signs were stolen,” Snyder said, adding souvenir-hungry fans carried away a number of stadium seats.The Tigers boosted their regular staff with several dozen temporary workers to form a total work crew of about 65 employees, he said.The team would not be able to estimate the cost of the damage until the end of the week, Snyder said.Detroit police and hospitals still were tallying the toll Monday from the spree that followed Detroit’s 8-4 victory in the fifth game of the Series.Scores of police, some clad in riot gear and some brandishing broken boards, struggled for hours to control the crowds.One police car was bur- Bruins’ MacTavish speaks about terrible ^mistake SALEM, Mass.(AP) — Boston Bruins centre Craig MacTavish, serving a one-year jail term for vehicular homicide, gave the benefit of his experience to a group of teenagers: When you drink and drive “the results can be fatal ’’ “You have your whole lives in front of you," the native of Ixmdon, Ont., said.“I know what it’s like to make a mistake ” About 40 teenagers gathered Sunday night in the basement of St.James Roman Catholic Church to hear the National Hockey League player talk about drunken driving.MacTavish pleaded guilty to a charge of motor vehicle homicide in the death Jan.25 of Kim Radley, 26, of Newfield, Me.The 26-year-old player began serving his term in May.In the jail, built in 1813, he sleeps on an army cot in a cell without a sink or running water.MacTavish said he was nervous in his first public appearance which began a week of talks he plans to give teenagers in Essex County."I hope 1 can deter any of you from going down the same road I went on,” he said.“You should not get behind the wheel when drinking.” MacTavish, assigned to the jail kitchen, drew a laugh when he said he cooked breakfast for other inmates.He conceded he misses the companionship of women.He said he can watch television.MISTAKE COSTLY In answer to a question, MacTavish said he has had nightmares about the fatal crash.He said he does not know if the Bruins will trade him.What had been his best year in the NHL turned bad in a moment.“My career is in doubt because of one mistake I made,” he said.His talk had an effecet.“The talk made you realize that one mistake could mess up your life,” said Bobby Ward, 14.MacTavish said his teammates visit him regularly in jail, but the start of the pro hockey season has been hard for him.He said he spends his days reading or exercising.“The biggest thing to fight in jail is boredom.” Scoreboard HOCKEY WALES COWfRtNCf Boston at tdmonton

Snow plays part in Broncs’ victory DENVER (AP) — It may have been the wisest decision Denver Bronco coach Dan Reeves made all season.His team won the toss Monday night, and Reeves elected to kick off, forcing Green Bay Packers to handle the ball first in snow-swept Mile High Stadium.Thirty-seven seconds later, the Broncos had a 14-0 lead, and held on for a 17-14 National Football League victory in a game played in ankle-deep snow.The Packers fumbled the ball away on their first play from scrimmage, and Denver safety Steve Foley scooped it up and ran 22 yards for a touchdown.On the very next play from scrimmage, the Packers fumbled again, and comerback Louis Wright dashed 27 yards for another TD.It was 14-0 with 14:23 remaining in the opening quarter, and the Packers never did recover from that disastrous start.“We were lucky to win the toss, and we wanted to kick off to take advantage of the weather conditions,” said Reeves.“We felt it would be awfully tough to move the football.“We forced a lot of turnovers and mistakes, and the two touchdowns were big for us.We needed both of them.” “It was probably the most miserable weather I’ve ever played a football game in, other than when I played in Green Bay (for Dallas Cowboys) for the championship in 1967 in 17-below weather,” Reeves said.It was below freezing at kickoff Monday night, and swirling snow made conditions treacherous.The protective tarp was removed from the grass field about 90 minutes before kickoff and, within minutes, the yard lines were obliterated.By the end of the game, up to three inches of snow stood on the field.“With all that snow on the ground, our timing was off,” said Reeves.“It seemed like we were playing on snow and they were playing on a fast surface.” But Denver's opportunistic defence made the difference.Besides the two crucial early fumble recoveries, Denver forced three other turnovers.“We threw the ball well but lost the game on turnovers,” said Green Bay coach Forrest Gregg.Ueberroth rules in favor of umpires NEW YORK (AP) — Peter Ueberroth, in his first decision as baseball commissioner, sided with the umpires in their contract dispute with the National and American Leagues.In his role as an arbitrator, Ueberroth announced Monday a pool would be established from which all umpires would be paid with proceeds of the all-star game, playoffs and World Series, including those who do not work those games.The two league presidents had rejected that proposal before this year’s championship series, leading to an umpires’ strike.The special events’ package awarded by Ueberroth, who succeeded Bowie Kuhn on Oct.l, is worth almost $1.4 million for the next three years.“The umpires are an integral part of major league baseball,” Ueberroth said in a statement released by his office.“They are important to the players, fans, and all of organized baseball.“These 60 men are the best in their profession, and have paid their dues with many years of hard work and training in amateur baseball and the minor leagues.They should be recognized accordingly.” Miami New Eng NY Jets Indian Buffalo Pittsburgh Cincinnati Cleveland Houston Raiders Denver
